Zenit is flying in their national league and is on track to lift their fourth straight title, which is natural since they are Russia's best squad in recent seasons. There are few teams that manage to go head-to-head with Zenit and the results show this very well since the hosts have been running over all their opponents in the last rounds. In the last round, they got a great result when they beat CSKA Moscow on the road by 2-0. Before that, the team recorded 5-1 against Nzhny, 0-0 against Ural, 4-1 against Dinamo Moscow, and 7-1 against Sp Moscow.

They can be proud as they are the current leader of the competition with a 4 point advantage over runner-up Dinamo Moscow. Furthermore, they register the best attack in the competition with 41 goals and the second-best defense with only 17 goals conceded. Overall they have 11 wins 3 draws and 2 losses, 36 points in 16 games. With no qualifying for the Champions League Playoffs, they can now focus more on the national championship until the Europa League knockout stage starts and for this reason, it is likely that we will see them continuing to run over all the teams.

The only one absent from the hosts is goalkeeper Stanislav Kritsyuk. Midfielder Wendel is doubtful but with good chances to act.

Zenit is also unbeaten in the last 5 matches against Rostov, with 4 wins and 1 draw.

Unlike the hosts, Rostov can't be too proud of his moment as he occupies the bottom of the table and has been showing very inconsistent performance. They arrive after losing on the road to Grozny 2-0. Before that, they tied with the weak Ufa at home by 2-2. Rostov shows many difficulties in overcoming weaker opponents on the table and when facing safer defenses the attack works little.

Overall they occupy the 11th position with 17 points from 16 games, 4 wins 5 draws and 7 losses, 27 goals scored and 29 conceded. It's hard to imagine them holding back the hosts' mighty attack mainly because they have a lot of doubting players for this game, as defending Nikolay Poyarkov and midfielders Kento Hashimoto and Armin Gigovic have little chance of acting. Midfielder Pavel Mamaev is embezzlement certain.

Zenit won all the last 3 games at home by a margin of at least 3 goals and I see that today they can repeat this again as they face a fragile opponent without some important pieces.

My probable score here is 2-0 3-0Marco Antonio,

GL!

泽尼特在联赛中一路高歌猛进，并有望连续第四个联赛冠军，这是很自然的，因为他们是最近几个赛季俄罗斯最好的球队。很少有球队能与泽尼特正面交锋，结果也很好地证明了这一点，因为东道主在上一轮的比赛中击败了所有对手。在上一轮比赛中，他们在客场2-0击败了莫斯科中央陆军，取得了不错的成绩。在此之前，球队在对阵Nzhny的比赛中取得了5-1的战绩，对阵乌拉尔0-0，对阵莫斯科迪纳摩4-1，对阵莫斯科Sp 7-1的战绩。

他们可以感到自豪，因为他们目前领先于亚军莫斯科迪纳摩4分。此外，他们以41球的成绩成为全场进攻最好的球队，以17球的失球成绩排名第二。他们总共有11胜3平2负，在16场比赛中拿下36分。由于没有欧冠季后赛的资格，他们现在可以把更多的精力放在全国冠军上，直到欧联杯淘汰赛开始。因此，我们很可能会看到他们继续碾压所有的球队。

唯一缺席主队比赛的是守门员斯坦尼斯拉夫·克里茨尤克。中场温德尔还不确定，但是有很好的机会。

泽尼特在与罗斯托夫的5场比赛中也保持不败，4胜1平。

与东道主不同，罗斯托夫不能为自己的这一时刻感到太骄傲，因为他占据了积分榜的最后一名，并且表现得非常不稳定。他们在去格罗兹尼的路上以2比0的比分失利后到达。在此之前，他们在主场与弱队乌法2比2战平。罗斯托夫在战胜桌上较弱的对手方面表现出许多困难，当面对更安全的防御时，攻击几乎不起作用。

总的来说，他们在16场比赛中得到17分，4胜5平7负，进27球，失29球，排在第11位。很难想象他们能阻止东道主强大的进攻，主要是因为他们有很多人对这场比赛持怀疑态度，防守的尼古拉·波雅科夫、中场桥本肯藤和阿明·基维奇几乎没有机会上场。中场球员帕维尔·马耶夫挪用公款确定无疑。

泽尼特在过去的三场主场比赛中都以至少3个进球的优势获胜，我认为今天他们可以再次做到这一点，因为他们面对的是一个脆弱的对手，他们没有一些重要的进球。

我的预测得分是2-0 3-0
